1) To develop a multi-dimensional gap analyses to determine how to implement science into the community in order to improve hazard resiliency. 2) To develop an analysis that is flexible and can be used for different regions of the Pacific. 3) To test the analyses for two geographically diverse areas â Kauai, Hawaii and the U.S. Marshall Islands. 4) If successful, apply in later phases to the entire Pacific Region.
